Ukraine's tardiness in making its prepayment for Russian gas deliveries could lead to a full shutdown within two days, Gazprom CEO Alexey Miller said today.
"Ukraine has not made its gas prepayment on time. As of today, there is only 219 million cubic meters of gas paid for. It takes about two days for Naftogaz to transfer funds to Gazprom," Miller said.
"Therefore, the delivery of gas to Ukraine in the volume of 114 million cubic meters of gas in the next two days already would bring the delivery of Russian gas to Ukraine to a full stop, which will create serious risks for transit gas to Europe," Miller added.
